Ah yes, I saw your review of Cutting for Stone. Would really like to get my hands on a copy now. I enjoyed your review of Solar, and glad it makes you want to read more McEwan – I really do think you will like them even more.

Wow, good month for Jeanette Winterson! I read Oranges over 20 years ago when I was a teenager and remember really enjoying it but I think it was a lot to do with that it was about lesbians which is always intreguing to a teen I reckon. I’m sure I would take something completely different from it if I were to read it again now.

🙂 Yes it was the same for me and Lady Chatterly’s Lover with the intrigue bit, although it left me a little disappointed I seem to remember. Definitely a good month for Winterson – she’s my latest discovery!

Ha ha, that reminds me of other books that had the same effect on me – The L Shaped Room by Lynne Reid Banks about a single pregnant woman (I remember being SO curious about this!) and I also remember sneaking a copy of my parents Sidney Sheldon to my room – what an eye-opener that was! 😉
